Comments Thread For: Tyson Fury Fears Eye Could Reopen, Won't Risk Sparring To Head

[1hourRun]

Cousin Hughie suffered a cut in training for Kubrat Pulev. Kubrat stuck his size 13 boot right up Hughie's monkey-ass in their world title eliminator, and that's exactly what Deontay 'Bronze-Bomber' Wilder is going to do to Tyson for the RING belt.

Wilder is a fool and deserves to lose if he doesn’t religiously jab that eye

Alexander Bes***** notified of 'abnormal test result' in wake of Radzhab Butaev fight

Alexander Bes***** was notified by the Monaco Boxing Federation of an ''abnormal test result'' in the wake of his victory over Radzhab Butaev on Nov. 30, which was contested for a version of the WBA welterweight.

The two met in Monte Carlo in what was a fast-paced affair that saw Bes***** win by scores of 116-112 on all three judges' cards.

According to the drug test report, a copy of which was obtained by ESPN, the substance that triggered the positive result is LGD-4033 (Ligandrol), commonly used by body builders because of its ability to produce lean body mass while lowering body fat.

Both Bes***** and Butaev came in below the 147-pound weight limit for their fight.

According to the United States Anti-Doping Agency website, Ligandrol "is prohibited under class S1.2 Other Anabolic Agents on the WADA Prohibited List. LGD-4033, and all SARMs, are prohibited at all times for all athletes, both in and out of competition."

"I am not surprised at all at hearing this news, and that's why I was never respectful of him as an athlete or as a person," Butaev said in a statement. "Ahead of the fight my team insisted on VADA testing while he and his team were denying it all along, and even after I agreed to pay for both sides, including his costs, he was very reluctant. After finally enrolling he attempted to ignore the requests from VADA for two weeks for his whereabouts to be tested.

"This is a disgrace and is disrespectful to the sport of boxing. All I have been wanting is a rematch since the final bell of the first fight.

"Now with a level playing field I'm even more confident in a victory!'" he continued.

Bes*****, 28, is represented by Top Rank.

Carl Moretti, Top Rank's vice president of boxing operations, told ESPN early Tuesday evening, "We are aware of the situation, we are discussing it thoroughly with his team. Other than that, we have no further comment."

The Nov. 30 card was promoted by Matchroom Sports, which was made aware of the findings Monday.

"It's been sent to the WBA, who I understand are dealing with it," said Matchroom Boxing promoter Eddie Hearn.

All talk. 50/50 fight

Absolutely correct

Pre-planned excuse.

'Can you believe this guy used to slate David Haye for having a career ending injury?'

Tyson Fury in my opinion has very little respect for his competitors, it is all show when he behaves in such a fashion.

He is going to win again and all in the BumsQuack van are in for the crash!

Translation: This is my pre planned excuse for losing the set up for the third fixed fight with the alabama fraud. Hope many of you suckers buy it and elevate us two frauds to Joshua's level of revenues generatiing. Don't blame me, this is all Haymon and Arum's idea, we just follow the $cript$.

Interesting, I hadn't heard of this until your post. Thanks for the heads-up. I saw the fight, thought it was close but clear win for Bes*****. Butaev the heavier hitter but less fluid in his combinations. I was impressed with Besputon's cardio, ability to continue moving and throwing punches in bunches and his ability to take the power shots of Butaev. Sounds like he had some chemical assistance to do that.

Was also pretty clear that Butaev didn't like Bes***** much. Even after the fight he seemed very upset, again sounds like there was a valid reason.

Fury needs to at least do one session where they test the eye out. He could use 'Socker Boppers' until he gets comfortable. 🥊

More bs from Fury hahaha

It was in ESPN this morning. Not a good look for Bes*****! He'll probably have to wave goodbye to a Pacquiao or Crawford fight in 2020!
